Inspired action matters! Zakie Odendaal (#Cover-Girl:) completed her 10 month solo hike-adventure on 10 June 2017 when she reached the South Africa / Mozambique border. She started her inspired journey with just her backpack and no funding or sponsors in September 2016. Zakie hiked from the South African / Namibian border, all along the South African coastline. Her next adventure is to do a 7 day hike through Swaziland with only R70. The Be Inspired ~ A Journey is a five star experience of five star nature, five star meals and five star accommodation. A wonderful South African hiking experience. It is made up of a series or choice of 3, 5 or 10 day guided slack-packing hikes of self-discovery throughout the Overberg region. It is the perfect way to relax and connect with nature and yourself. Release tension and stress while breathing exquisitely clean air and hiking ... more about Be Inspired ~ A Journey.

The importance of Freedom of Panorama for Wikipedia. For South Africa. Freedom of Panorama (FoP) enables you and Wikipedia to use photographs of public spaces, art and buildings in countries around the world without restriction. Whilst ensuring the artist or architect still benefits from copyright rights. South Africa does not have Freedom of Panorama. Its most important culture and history is missing on Wikipedia. Sharing such photos on social media isn't allowed. Freedom of Panorama will fix that. Parliament is reviewing South African copyright law right now. If you think South Africa should have Freedom of Panorama? Take Action Please.

Antonio da Silva-Swart's passion lies with hiking the coast and organising cleanups along the Whale Coat coastline, either with school learners or volunteers from the area. On the first Saturday of each month, I hold a cleanup of the coast and collect the marine debris with Volunteers. The area gets decided after I have done a reconnaissance of the coast or one of my area specialists lets me know what it looks like in their area. The bags are sponsored by Plastics SA and I take the debris to Whale Coast Conservation Green House in Vermont, for analysing/counting and sorting. The results get emailed to Plastics SA for the annual international coastal cleanup day and yearly results. These results get sent to the International Coastal Cleanup Organisation for global reporting. This forthcoming Saturday, my friend and avid co-hiker; Michael Raimondo, will be taking volunteers from Vermont to Hawston on a stretch of 3.2km of coast to clean that part. They will meet at the fence at Brekvis Beach (border of Vermont and the Hoek-van-die-Berg reserve) at 8h30am and do a 2 hour cleanup. Volunteers can contact Antonio 0724624271 / Please read these articles for more information and inspiration. A man with a passion for cleaning up. Groep maak maandeliks strand skoon. Residents join in cleaning up our coast.
